Java Program for Chess Game
Each square(rectangle) in the chessboard is 20 pixels by 20 pixels. The squares are grey and black. If the row and column are either even or odd, then the color is Grey. Otherwise, change the color to Black.

gra.setColor(c) is called to set the color that is used in drawing
gra.fillRect(x_axis, y_axis, w(20), h(20)) fills the inside of the rectangle instead of just drawing an outline.
